I'd love to do a train horn (or a semi's horn would work too), but I can't seem to figure out a good place to put one unfortunately. Not exactly like we have tons of room under the hood... I'd be careful putting anything resembling a siren on your car though, the sound could give people the...

Yeah, I'd love another set of GSD3's, but it's a little hard to swallow the extra $500 that the Goodyears would cost over the NT05's, for what I've seen to be comparable amounts of traction... But on an n/a, you're fine sticking with the 16's. Tire pricing is actually one of only two reasons I...

When in doubt, order from one of our vendors on here. ;) Also, if it sounds too good to be true...

I never understood releasing old movies on BR. Sounds like your friend might have a few anger issues haha...

Well put Mattman, that song has always been a favorite. :)

No, no block heater here. I may have exaggerated a bit on how long it takes my car to start. It's not terrible, but when cold, it doesn't just wind right up. If it's above 20 or so, it'll fire up in less than a full second. Optima batteries FTW! :) That's what I meant, wired in parallel, not...

That, I do not remember. I'm not the one who did the work on my head (precision isn't exactly my forté) but I do remember that only 3 of the shims were able to be re-used, and only one of them was good to go in it's original spot...

Sound advice here. Some of the cars that people I've known have had, but sold/crashed/whatever...

Like I've said, give me a couple weeks notice, and I'd be happy to do a Saturday afternoon meet. Might be able to drag along a couple other Supra-less enthusiasts with me. :)

I wouldn't mind someone mistaking my car for an 8... they were good looking cars. I've only seen one in my life so far though. Try pricing out the 315/35/17's sometime. ;) A good alternative that I've found suitable is the Nitto NT05. Quite a bit cheaper, but quite sticky still. Haven't driven...

Where's JJ when these threads pop up? Usually doesn't take long... :)

Houston actually did get snow today, closed off a lot of highways too. Our main office is down there, they've all taken the day off. probably deserve it though, they've been busy. Unfortunately, a lot of our suppliers decided to take the week off due to the weather too, and it's impacted OUR...

I heard about that, yeah. My car has been taking like 5-6 seconds to fire up when the weather's been like this. Starting to think wiring up two batteries wired in series might not be a bad idea when it gets this cold...

I have my days where I tend to run a couple minutes behind, it usually corresponds to the weather. If the weather's warm, I usually get around better and don't feel as tired. Am NOT a morning person in the least though... Give me a job that starts in the afternoon or evening, and I am good to...

Sounds to me like you're treading a path of your own here sir, and I support the idea. Can't really help you out unfortunately, but good luck and keep us in the loop!

I've been running my setup for about 16 months now, as a daily driver. BC264 cams, ported and polished head, every other piece on the engine that isn't the exhaust piping is 100% stock. Does just fine, I believe my rev limiter is set around 7200 (engine/trans is a 92 JZA70), but I'm pretty sure...

These things are money pits, but I wouldn't have it any other way most days. It's all a bit of perspective. I've probably spent ~15k on my current car (kinda quit adding up my costs once I hit ~12k), but I'm pulling all the good stuff off my current shell (got t-boned a long long time ago and...

Do it right the first time or spend twice as much doing it right the second time. I believe "measure twice, cut once" applies to this sort of thing. ;)

"FWD" and "RWD" offset doesn't hold much weight from what I've noticed. Miata, Mazda 3, Mk3 Supra, Probe GT, Mustang, all have offsets in the mid 30's. Mk4 Supra and many Civics share a similar ~+50 offset too, so... I don't dislike the Probe wheels, but you are adding fuel to the fire with...

IJ, that's a horrible representation of that bird, couldn't you at least find a picture? ;)
